Hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards, droughts, and floodscan wreak havoc on our lives and environment. No wonder we're so interested in theweather!  \nBut what causes the weather? Why does it rain, and what is fog? What happens whenpeople get too hot or too cold? These are questions you can answer in a weather andclimate program. Most children don't realize that we affect the weather. In theconclusion of your program, you can show how deforestation, global warming, andthethinning ozone layer affect the weather around the world, while focusing on what wecan doto keep the weather systems intact.  \n## Interesting Weather Facts\n\n􀁺 Insects fly low to the ground before a rainstorm because their wingsare heavier than normal with dampness from increased humidity.  \n􀁺 The reason it smells different right before a rainstorm is because there is less airpressure around us. It presses less heavily on the ground. Smells have a chance torise higher. What you smell is grass, flowers, and decaying vegetation.  \n􀁺 Spiders live on the snow and ice of Mount Everest, the highest mountain in theworld. They were blown there by the wind. What do they eat? Live insects alsoblown there!  \n􀁺 An average thundercloud holds about six trillion raindrops.  \n􀁺 Mighty winds pick up dusty soil from the Sahara Desert in Africa and blow it all theway across the Atlantic Ocean. The soil drops as far away as Florida, theCaribbean, andthe Amazon rainforest, and may help fertilize the soil there!  \n􀁺 There are approximately 2000 thunderstorms raging around the world everysecond of the day.  \n􀁺 In 1937, a tornado lifted a train engine, turned it around, and set it back down onnearby tracks, facing in the other direction!  \n􀁺 Swirling winds can pick up animals and drop them far from home. Cities inCalifornia have been showered with crabs, shrimp, and salamanders!  \n􀁺 Racetrack Playa is a place in California where the racing contestants are rocks!Wind makes rocks slide along the smooth surface of a desert“dry lake” bed whenthe ground is wet or frozen!  \n## Sample Program: Weather and Climate\n\n### I. Introduction\n\nIntroduce yourself to the group.  \nIntroduce the Junior Ranger Program.  \n### II. Focus\n\nAsk the Junior Rangers to look at what they are wearing and what the other kidsare wearing. Why did they choose to wear that outfit today? (Keep asking forresponses until someone says, “because of the weather.”)  \n### III. Objectives\n\nToday we are going to discuss weather. Weather includes everything from abreeze to a tornado, from a raindrop to a thunderstorm. By the end of thisprogram, you will have learned just how much everything on earth is affected bythe weather, and how some kinds of weather phenomena occur.  \n### IV. Inquiry/Discussion\n\nA. Weather and Safety  \n1. We have to pay attention to weather. If animals, including humans, get toocold or too hot, they can get very sick and some can even die.  \n2. What is it called when people become too cold, either from being exposedto cold water or weather for long periods of time or from not wearingappropriate clothing in cold or windy weather?  \nHypothermia (hypo = low, thermia = temperature)  \n3. How does your body try to keep itself from getting too cold?Your muscles move to create heat (shivering) .  \n4. If people exercise too much or hike without drinking enough water they canoverheat and get heat exhaustion, heat cramps, or heatstroke. What isthis condition called?  \nHyperthermia (hyper = high , thermia = temperature) .  \n5. How does your body try to keep cool?  \nYou perspire (sweat) .  \n6. Let's say you lookout in the morning before your hike, and it is sunny andwarm, but the weatherman says it is goi","cbCaiq6WJqmE5eq4","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiq6WJqmE5eq4","pdf",646274,12,"English","# Introduction\n# Interesting Weather Facts\n# Sample Program: Weather and Climate\n## I.
